<p>Are “semester hours” the same thing as the number of units a class is on a semester system?</p>
<p>so for example if I took a 4 unit coures at usc, would that classify as “4 semester hours”??? Is my understanding correct?</p>
<p>USC calls them units, other colleges may call them hours. The only way to know if a semester “hour” at one university is considered equal to a “unit” at USC is to read the articulation agreement found at USC’s website. Hope this helps.</p>
